Unfortunately, the two Churches would naturally use the highest standards to keep such a powerful magic artifact a secret. Therefore, there was basically no reliable information about this magic artifact in the Sorcerer World. They only knew that this mysterious magic artifact did exist, and that it might be related to the alchemy technique of the Eye of the Storm.
Therefore, in Connor's opinion, Dezerby's suspicious actions were very likely because he was secretly spying on him with that mysterious magic artifact. If that was really the case, then this mysterious magic artifact really had some tricks up its sleeves. Connor really hadn't noticed anything strange at all until now.
After narrowing his eyes and thinking for a while, Connor put the flagon back into his space ring and used his magic to dispel the drunkenness in his head. Although he didn't have any evidence to confirm that Dezerby was indeed spying on him with that rumored mysterious magic artifact, Connor was already certain that this was the case.
Crestante, as the biggest intelligence chief of the Church of the Storm, clearly knew that Dezerby's mental strength wasn't as good as his, but he still asked Dezerby to spy on him. He must have given Dezerby some means to spy on him, and Connor believed that this means was most likely the rumored mysterious magic artifact!
If this operation was a normal operation, it wouldn't matter if Dezerby secretly spied on him, and Connor would be done with it. However, it was different now, so no matter what, Connor had to give it a try and see if he could find a way to solve the current situation.
Dezerby, who still didn't know what Connor was thinking, was sitting in his wooden house. In his hand was a very strange book carved out of crystal. This crystal book didn't display words, but Connor's every move in the wooden house not far away.
Looking at Connor in the book, Dezerby's old face couldn't help but show a hint of pride. He couldn't help but whisper to himself, "Connor Ferguson, you son of a bitch. No matter how sharp your senses are, you still can't hide from my crystal book!"
Speaking of this, Dezerby's old hand gently stroked the crystal book in his hand, as if he was caressing the face of his lover. This crystal book was personally given to him by Cristante, the intelligence chief of Blake's Organization, before Flosinone left. It was also the reason why he dared to accept and spy on Connor Ferguson. Otherwise, with his mental strength, it was undoubtedly impossible for him to spy on Connor Ferguson!
Regarding this crystal book, before Flosinone's departure, Cristante didn't tell Dezerby too much, nor did he tell him the origin of this crystal book. He only told Dezerby the use of this crystal book and how to use it.
However, when Cristante solemnly said that in the event of an accident, he shouldn't hesitate and immediately follow the procedure to destroy the crystal book, Dezerby realized the importance of this crystal book to the Church of the Storm. In addition, he had been secretly spying on Connor these past few days, but Connor didn't notice at all. This made Dezerby treasure this crystal book even more.
Looking at the scene in the book, Connor stopped drinking and took out an alchemy furnace from his space ring. He seemed to be refining something. Dezerby wasn't very proficient in alchemy. Although he was curious about what Connor was doing, he helplessly discovered that with his level of knowledge, he couldn't find any clues from Connor's actions. This undoubtedly dampened Dezerby's enthusiasm.
After enduring his boredom and watching for a while, he saw Connor take out an ordinary grade 1 magic artifact from the alchemy furnace. Dezerby couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. A grade 1 magic artifact might be a good item for an acolyte, but for an official Magus like him and Connor, it was nothing.
Seeing that Connor seemed to be refining other grade 1 magic artifacts, Dezerby simply put down the crystal book in his hand and closed his eyes to recuperate and cultivate. In the battle with the group of Evil Spirit Spiders today, whether it was physically or mentally, Dezerby had suffered quite a bit of damage. This kind of damage wasn't something that could be recovered with a short rest of an hour. Now that Connor was refining some unimportant grade 1 magic artifacts, he could take advantage of this opportunity to recuperate.
However, what Dezerby didn't expect was that when he put the crystal book aside and began to recuperate, Ferguson, who was in the middle of inscribing spells into the alchemy furnace in front of him, seemed to have faintly sensed something. A strange smile appeared on his face.
Just now, in the process of thinking while drinking, Connor, under the stimulation of alcohol, suddenly had a brainstorm and an idea popped up in his mind!
Things like surveillance were never one-way. For example, if you were to spy on me, I wouldn't be able to spy on you. Therefore, now that Dezerby could use that mysterious magic artifact to spy on him, then he, Connor Ferguson, could also spy on Dezerby!
Although Connor didn't have that mysterious magic artifact from the Church of the Storm that could silently spy on other Magi, as a spirit type Magus, he could use his spiritual force, which was far more powerful than Dezerby's, to spy on Dezerby!
Besides having a stronger spiritual force than Dezerby, if Connor wanted to spy on Dezerby, he had a very good advantage. And that was that the distance between the wooden hut Connor was in and Dezerby's hut was only a mere twenty meters!
At such a close distance, if Connor were to go all out, he could completely cover it with his spiritual force. This meant that in theory, as long as Connor's movements were concealed and careful enough, he could use his spiritual force to spy on Dezerby without him knowing.
As for that mysterious magic artifact that was jointly developed by the Church of the Storm and the Religion of the Earth, although it was well protected and not much information about it was leaked to the outside world, all the known information that was circulating pointed to it being a magic artifact used to spy on Magi. Its spying ability was extremely powerful and undetectable.
Apart from that, there were no other rumors or news about this mysterious magic artifact. Therefore, according to some alchemy knowledge, Connor boldly guessed that this mysterious magic artifact's use was relatively simple. It could only spy on Magi, but it couldn't sense if the user was being spied on!
